Flash Flood?

Well Sunday was an eventful day. We had a flash flood. It rained, I should say poured for 45 minutes straight. The water started to come up onto our porch and threatened going into the house. My hubby was great, he got out the shovel and started making little ditches to run the water off another way. Our whole little front yard was flooded. The kids were excited. My almost 3 year old, he'll be three on wednesday, doesn't like to get his cloths wet. So, he just got down to his diaper and enjoyed the rain. It was still hot out, felt like arizona weather.

This picture is what my Iguana hangs out in, when its sunny. It is going to take a couple of days for the mud to dry out. He will be upset. He has enjoyed the weather this summer. "Bud" just turned 13 this summer.

My hubby had to dig out his car that day. We have clay mud, so its pretty bad when it gets soaked. Fun! Fun!

Later that day my hubby and I went out to dinner. A friend that works at the Barona Casino gave us a complimentary dinner for two gift certificate. It was at the Sage Restaurant. We were given a certificate for the buffet last time, it was great. We hadn't been to the Sage before so we were excited. We were even more excited to find out that the dinner was for 2 appetizers, any 2 entree's, 2 drinks, 2 deserts and 2 coffee's, as well as indian fry bread, 2 salads and rolls. WELL, the best part was the ANY 2 entree's, we ordered 2 New York Steaks and Lobster's. We would of never spent that on a meal, it was a night to remember. We are so grateful for that gift.

Yesterday, we went to my dad's house to celebrate his 53rd birthday. We had a good time. I love being around my family. I love them so much. My dad bought this game called Top Toss, anyone play it? It is fun, we had blast trying to beat each other. We are going to buy one for ourselves. You can find them at Toy's R Us online or in an ABC Catalog for a reasonable price. Anyways, hanging out and laughing for the afternoon was relaxing. I wish we spent more time doing that, but of course our jobs and everything else gets in the way of that. Be joyful for the time spent together.

God has always blessed my whole family. We are grateful for everyday we get to spend with each other. Thank You Jesus!
